Truly, Madly, Deeply – by One Direction
Capo 5
This is an easier rendition if you’re having trouble with the key of C original.
I'll post both though.
There are a lot of bass notes walking in this song. You get this sound by playing
the note marked by the big X (or O for open string) and following with the little
x's. You don’t play the rest of your strings! There are two main patterns for the
entire song. Here they are:
PATTERN 1

VERSE 1:
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Am I asleep, am I awake, or somewhere in between?
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
I can't believe that you are here and lying next to me
C2 G/B Dsus/A G/B
Or did I dream that we were perfectly entwined?
C2 G/B Dsus/A G/B
Like branches on a tree, or twigs caught on a vine?
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Like all those days and weeks and months I tried to steal a kiss
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
And all those sleepless nights and daydreams where I pictured this,
C2 G/B Dsus/A G/B
I'm just the underdog who finally got the girl
C2 G/B Am G/B
And I am not ashamed to tell it to the world

CHORUS:
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Truly, madly, deeply, I am
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Foolishly, completely fallen
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
And somehow, you kicked all my walls in
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
So baby, say you'll always keep me
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Truly, madly, crazy, deeply
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
in love with you
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
in love with you
VERSE 2
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Should I put coffee and granola on a tray in bed
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
And wake you up with all the words that I still haven't said?
C2 G/B Am G/B
And tender touches, just to show you how I feel
C2 G/B Am G/B
Or should I act all cool, like it was no big deal?
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Wish I could freeze this moment in a frame and stay like this
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
I'll put this day back on replay and keep reliving it
C2 G/B Am G/B
'cause here's the tragic truth if you don't feel the same
C2 G/B Am G/B
My heart would fall apart if someone said your name
CHORUS
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Truly, madly, deeply, I am
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Foolishly, completely fallen
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
And somehow, you kicked all my walls in
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
So baby, say you'll always keep me
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
Truly, madly, crazy, deeply
G Dsus/F# Em7 Dsus/F#
in love with you
BRIDGE
C
I hope I'm not a casualty,
Em
Hope you won't get up and leave
D
Might not mean that much to you
C (G)
But to me it's everything, everything
